Such an amazing performance. Only hours after her father died. Unbelievable

[@lovelycamiishere2663]

KaigePlays ikr I'm very proud of her for not giving up on the live play.

[@neverbehatin]

@Nova Bengtsson her father

[@fenderstratADHD]

Her father died when she did this??

[@xxitskatlynnxx]

671JH yeah only hours before this

[@heatherharris1131]

It had to have been heart breaking for her. She's an amazing actress. I'm sure the passing of her father helped out a bit in the acting of this part. I would have been devastated.

[@jade-mu9do]

"I don't steal and I don't lie, but I can feel..and I can cry" She was feeling that note. 😓

[@heatherharris1131]

You could definitely see it hit her after she hit that point. She was so close to breaking.

[@ClassicDepravities]

When I was in a production of Oklahoma, the woman playing Annie suffered a devastating loss right before opening night. Her dad committed suicide without explaining why, and a mere two hours before we were supposed to go on, she was sobbing in the dressing room. But once that curtain raised, she smiled and danced and was the comic relief of the show like nothing was wrong. I do NOT understand how performers can stay so strong, but it's incredible to watch.

[@foxteen8721]

That was so brave of her. May her father rest in peace on the other hand.

[@elavariam180]

I thought he died of cancer, Vanessa did an amazing job.

[@foxteen8721]

Use code James For 10% off Vanessa's father yes. I was talking about the actress of the father who took his life.

[@casideehope5398]

I know this off topic but I’m from Oklahoma..

[@ciel9112]

I had nothing as horrible as that happen, but opening night of my last night school show, I got slammed in the head with a set piece and got a really bad concussion. I got through the rest of the shows, and then during the last performance, my glasses fell out of my pocket and someone stomped on them by accident and I had to literally be led back to the choir room behind the auditorium because I couldn't see in the dark or more than a few feet in front of me. I got through most of the show, I couldn't do one scene because it required running around in the dark and that was kind of impossible at that point because I literally couldn't see in the dark, but yeah. Performers practically kill themselves to do shows.

[@barenaissance3146]

The fact that she did this hours after her dad died and the fact that her vocal technique has greatly improved over the last several proves how great she is. Broadway is definitely meant for her!

[@tomgallowitz]

Agreed when she starts singing I could hurt someone...you could tell it’s hits home since like Rizzo she’s at her lowest point and vulnerable

[@wickedglinda1827]

Actually this was before lol a lot tough was after but this was recorded days before

[@animalfinatic9366]

I love how she sang, "Mr. Right!"

[@DarrenFinn-z8l]

She really never

[@BeanniieeBee]

She did really great

[@burritosenpai5890]

People are a little harsh on her.Yes.Her voice is a little more how you say,girly sounding?Compared to "womanly." But it's still good singing.And the fact that she was still able to sing this without crying shortly(?) after her father died :(

[@andyd3447]

Well shes supposed to be in high school so I don't know why she should sound like a woman lol

[@theturningtrio7156]

I know I’m late but I think it could be because the original Rizzo was 30 when she did the movie so that could be the reason

[@bellanimation4942]

Shes always had a nasal-ly voice. As someone who has been in vocal lessons since i was six, i know theres a difference between singing through your nose, or diaphram. People that sing through their diaphram, generally have a more mature sounding voice, with more control. Vanessa sings more through her nose, however her acting and emotion makes up for everything, especially since she absolutely nailed this performance just hours after her dad died.

[@lynnly2406]

Burrito Senpai ikr, her voice is just on the more nasal tone, and plus, those vocals are dang good

[@trinity2516]

People would be so happy if they could sing like Vanessa

[@Wildswampcrab]

Her dad died like a few h ous before this so her emotion was all real... She slayed it even being as upset as she was

[@arinfrancis2497]

Yellow Mello they were making a joke abt Gabriella from high school musical.. they weren’t joking about Vanessa’s dad dying

[@tcconnection]

Not did her father just pass, but she did this live. She's not lip-synching while a record has the actual singing. I'm a senior citizen and saw the Grease film half a dozen times back in '78. This is still the best rendition for me.

[@JoshJazz01]

I am LIVING for her vocal improvement!

[@agenttheater5]

She showed a different kind of vulnerability than Rizzo from the movie, both very well done by both actresses though. Especially impressive in this scene.

[@saraa7841]

I know you posted this reaction 4 years ago, and the Grease Live was 7 years ago… but; the same day, hours before this Show Vanessa’s father had died.. in this song you could actually see her hurting as she sang “I could feel and I could cry” … Vanessa did an amazing job as a professional doing a huge live show like this just hours after she lost her father

[@aquaperi4848]

I'm Listening to this, thinking of how she decided to perform it in her father's honor, and she belts that high note.... I feel something wet run down one eye, oh shoot... here comes the tears...

[@tomgallowitz]

That was amazing, probably was a mix of character and real emotion once she got to the deeper portions of the show since she lost the one guy who looks at her like Danny looks at Sandy all her life.

[@ceciliaortega2401]

The only song worth listening to in the whole live performance.

[@yunuenvigil2334]

Cecilia Ortega i know right, i feel like only she, Carlos Pena Vega, and Keke Palmer did a good job

aaa amamamamamam I love those parts too

[@flowerchild6309]

Yesssss love the low “ wait arouuuuuund “ then switch high on “Mr. Riiiiight” it was done so well. I love her rendition so much. Others sing it too fast & lack emotion. I think Vanessa brought such tenderness.

[@scifigeek14]

Love her. she was a highlight of the show.

[@LovelyLies16]

The fact she pulled this scene off mere hours after learning her dad died... you can see her tears in her eyes towards the ending of the song. She was really putting the emotion into specific lyrics.

[@MerryRoseHowley]

Anyone that writes her off as just a Disney kid needs to wake up! This lady's got some true vocal chops

[@marinamaghelly8990]

how amazing is the fact that her father died one day before this and she still did it and absolutely killed it

[@Jaybirdie1226]

Marina Maghelly it was actually a couple hours beforehand. Even sadder :(

[@Amy-tx1ru]

There are worse things I could do Than go with a boy or two Even though the neighborhood Thinks I'm trashy and no good I suppose it could be true But there are worse things I could do I could flirt with all the guys Smile at them and bat my eyes Press against them when we dance Make them think they stand a chance Then refuse to see it through That's a thing I'd never do I could stay home every night Wait around for Mr.Right Take cold showers every day And throw my life away On a dream that won't come true I could hurt someone like me Out of spite or jealousy I don't steal and I don't lie But I can feel and I can cry A fact I'll bet you never knew But to cry in front of you That's the worst thing I could do-

I give Vanessa a lot of credit for this. She still went out and performed in Grease Live hours after losing her dad. When my dad passed away, I couldn’t even get out myself out of bed.

[@lyndabarrett8185]

This is very true, animals are the best, *smiles* however, to the point, when you have a whole cast who you have rehearsed and performed with, actually going on stage is one of the most absorbing ways to forgot the world and to lose yourself. I know, I lost my husband at the age of 26 [he was 27] and singing/performing/rehearsing was the only thing that took my mind of it, even for a while. xxx @@jameslalonde1112

[@Originella]

My dad is the utmost professional and I know if I was in a production like this that he'd expect me to go on and mourn internally for him until it was all over...

[@Pinklady25]

I was so impressed with her! This is such an improvement from the High School Musical days when she had that nasal Disney voice. Beautiful performance

[@Heeyitsmika]

Miss Panda Cupcake Didnt she do that on purpose? I mean when she sings "sweetly" thats what I hear. Or was that her actual singing voice before?

[@chrissyaye]

That’s because she was like 13 or 14 back then she’s even took the mick out of her voice back then not that long ago

[@sharonaschnall4674]

She still sounded really beautiful in HSM.

[@aquablue1252]

She also had extensive vocal training, and sounds amazing

[@Saltysaltire97]

She has such a good voice. I'd love for Vanessa to do more theatre/broadway.

[@louiethemouseful]

Her voice has gotten SOOOO much better since high school musical

[@agenttheater5]

0:51 Used to think she was talking about flirting with guys for the heck of it and then not 'seeing it through' without caring if she actually liked them or not. Now I think she's talking about how "You all laugh at me for going through with it and whisper behind my back loud enough for me to hear, you'd be saying things about me even if I didn't, don't act like you wouldn't." 1:18 I used to thought she was making fun of Sandy again for being 'the good girl' or calling her stupid for thinking mr right was just going to come along, now I think it's a mix of refusal to do nothing with her life and also sadness over not having a long lasting relationship because actually it feels nice to know that someone cares enough about you to stay with you.

[@Ailacatailu]

I watched grease a lot as a little kid but never remembered this song. Now, it’s my favorite from the movie. Revolutionary for its time and kind of for now as wel

[@charlesc7950]

[@chipsthedog1]

Best song from a movie full of great songs and it's so powerful that it changes one's perspective of Rizzos character because up till this point she had not come across as being very nice but this one song humanised her and let us see through the guard she put up

[@hardyquinn9442]

Vanessa was amazing in this role, I didn't initially see it when I heard she was cast but boy, was I wrong. It's incredibly brave of her to have perfomed after learning of such a tragedy but girl is truly talented. She did a phenomenal job and was obviously incredibly professional throughout the entire performance. I did theater for 14 years and they say "the show must go on" but Im not sure if I could have done so if I was in her shoes. This song felt real and raw, that's hkw J can tell she's truly an artist. Seemingly using those feelings deep down in her soul and becoming rizzo along the way. She crushed that song and she stole the show❤

Bao-Han Nguyen What?? Rizzo and Gabriella aren’t in any way similar?? The have completely opposite morals, goals, and personalities. You’re literally just saying that cuz Vanessa Hudgens is performing it and no other reason 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@elizabethwhipple8458]

I would have to agree with Jaybirdie, in my opininon she is more similar to an older more mature Sharpay. This is not supposed to be mean though, just my opinion, as like yoy have yours.😊

[@ignacioriveravillarroel5102]

@@Jaybirdie1226 ​ I think that Bao-Han refers to the fact that Vanessa is performing a solo, dressed as a student, suffering and all-alone in the school, just like Gabriella did on HSM1. I don't think that he was talking about the characters personalities or their backgrounds.
